The CARMENES search for exoplanets around M dwarfs : Understanding the wavelength dependence of radial velocity measurements
S. V. Jeffers, J. R. Barnes, P. Schöfer +22
Context. Current exoplanet surveys are focused on detecting small exoplanets orbiting in the liquid-water habitable zones of their host stars. Despite the recent significant advanc…
The CARMENES search for exoplanets around M dwarfs. Cluster analysis of signals from spectral activity indicators to search for shared periods
J. Kemmer, M. Lafarga, B. Fuhrmeister +17
A multitude of spectral activity indicators are routinely computed nowadays from the spectra generated as part of planet-hunting radial velocity surveys. Searching for shared perio…
The CARMENES search for exoplanets around M dwarfs. Occurrence rates of Earth-like planets around very low-mass stars
A. Kaminski, S. Sabotta, J. Kemmer +24
Aims: Previous estimates of planet occurrence rates in the CARMENES survey indicated increased numbers of planets on short orbits for M dwarfs with masses below 0.34\,M. He…
The CARMENES search for exoplanets around M dwarfs. The impact of rotation and magnetic fields on the radial velocity jitter in cool stars
H. L. Ruh, M. Zechmeister, A. Reiners +19
Radial velocity (RV) jitter represents an intrinsic limitation on the precision of Doppler searches for exoplanets that can originate from both instrumental and astrophysical sourc…
